Efterklang 

Live reviews

• Efterklang walked out onto the stage, and the crowd cheered happily as the band picked up their gear. The happy musicians waved, and some spacey, monster movie style rumbles started emanating from the amplifiers.

  Things were quiet for a minute, as the rumbling noise continued. Synthesizer arpeggios drifted in from the murky ambiance, and created an ethereal, colorful void. A glitchy beat emerged and a hazy wall of sound had been produced. Once a groove had been established, the vocals came in, with an animalistic yelping style.

  I was pretty blown away at this point. What on Earth was I listening to? This is great! The vocalist began crooning out the lyrics to "Between The Walls", and the crowd was just as happy as I was. This song was a real jam, and had a lot of emotion!

  Efterklang's eclectic sound draws influence from glitch, indie, dream pop, and gothic rock, and the mix blends perfectly. The entire set, I was captivated by the orchestral worlds that Efterklang had created in such short amounts of time. The artistic vision of these musicians is real, passionate and worth a listen to. If you are an audiophile who loves the craft of song writing, Efterklang is the band for you to check out.

• There is some real fantastic rock coming out of Denmark recently yet ahead of the trend is indie outfit Efterklang who have been working the circuit since the early 00s. Writing and recording has paid off for this band as they have an international appeal, often playing the UK to larger venues that continually sell out to those who are very much in the know.

  There is a sense of whimsy affiliated with Scandinavia and many of its musicians use the folklore and fairytale within their songwriting and Efterklang are no exception to the rule. However the crunching guitar of 'Hollow Mountain' negates any preconception of anything particularly sweet within this opening number. The riffs aren't all as unforgiving with a large amount of the set swaying more towards the band's folk influence as the tracks are lead with acoustic sounds. It is back to the anthemic for a finale of the stomping 'Modern Drift'. The UK has always had an infatuation with Scandinavian musician and Efterklang appear to be our latest obsession.

• It was fucking great (pardon my french). Absolutely bonkers yet so good, at points as divine as uncomfortable, psychotic or hilarious - never heard people laughing out loud in a gig, an opera gig, and not because of the performance but, well, I don't even know why we would just suddenly burst out laughing.

  Half way through I thought I was high, but that's not likely (unless they put something funny in my curry or my tea).

  So yeah, that about sums it up. Great!

• Normally I love Efterklang, but I really disliked the opera concert.

  Some of our friends actually left in the middle of the concert.

  Would have loved to hear more of the Efterklang's lead singers fantastic voice.

• Wonderful night. Wonderful band. We were already conquered when we went. We had to drive 180 km back home after the show and get up urly for work. I felt young again.

  Thanks a lot for your music.

• Magisk og fantastisk koncert!!! En koncert fyldt med kærlighed og stemning. Se dem, oplev dem, og ikke mindst deres nyeste plade på dansk er et must at høre. De Århus/Voxhall i deres favn.
